Newly applicable federal legislation mandates permanent foundations and shifts liability to manufacturers for foundation-related defects. This legislation, coupled with downward pressure on housing prices (which will increase the demand for lower cost manufactured housing) and new financing alternatives for manufactured homes (which require engineer-certified permanent foundations) combine to make a future for manufactured housing that is indeed promising.

Unfortunately almost all the foundation systems that meet the regulation are very pricey, running as high as $25,000 and taking weeks of site work to install

In the past many manufactured homes have failed to perform because of installation problems. There was never an effective method of attachment between the house and the foundation. A patented a break-through technology that integrates the house and the foundation into one unit by casting the foundation in place at the site. This is a revolutionary development for affordable housing because it enables any home manufactured in a factory to perform exactly like a site-built home when it is delivered to the site and set on the cast-in-place Foundation System.
